What about you? Do you have a type?” I don’t even have to think about it. Beautiful, passionate, stubborn women who don’t have a problem telling me what they really think about me.” She lifts a brow and hums. “That’s very specific.” “I know what I like.” She tries to hide her smile by spearing some chicken onto her fork and taking a bite. “Well, I hope you find her one of these days.” I wonder how long we’re going to pretend like I haven’t already.
